Family Worried About Bay Shore Teen Missing Since July 2

BAY SHORE, N.Y. (CBSNewYork) -- Police are asking for the public's help to find a 15-year-old Bay Shore girl who has been missing for a week.

Brandy Walsh was last seen at her house at 1148 Joselson Ave. on July 2.

"She said she was going to a friend's house, that was about 3 o'clock in the afternoon. I told her be home at 7, she said she'd see me at 7," her grandfather, Kenneth Walsh, told WCBS 880's Sophia Hall. "Never came back, never went to the friend's house."

Kenneth Walsh said his granddaughter is a good kid and wants her back safe and sound.

"There's enough pedophiles out there; she's 15 and anybody who knows where she is and is harboring her should be charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor," he said.

"Was she hanging out with older guys or people?" WCBS 880's Sophia Hall asked.

"No. Not that I'm aware of, cause she knows I'd have put my foot down right then and there," Walsh said.

Brandy is described as 5-feet tall, 140 pounds, with long hair that is dyed in different colors. Her hair was bright red when she was last seen.

Her family believes she has plans to attend the Vans Warped Tour at Jones Beach on July 11.

Anyone with information about Brandy's whereabouts are asked to call the Third Squad at 631-854-8352 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-220-TIPS.
